Clinical outcomes of breast-conserving surgery versus mastectomy in early-stage breast cancer: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The best surgical approach for early-stage breast cancer is still under debate, particularly in the context of breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and mastectomy. A retrospective cohort study of 132 patients treated with BCS or mastectomy over 5 years of follow-up compared outcomes related to overall survival, disease-free survival, recurrence, and complications. Outcomes were similar in each group but higher recurrence was associated with BCS and better cosmetic and psychological outcomes. Mastectomy had lower recurrence but additional morbidity associated with treatment. These findings are an important step in advocating for shared decision-making with individualized treatment options.
